Gavi has everything he needs at Barcelona and would not be happy at another club, according to Xavi.
The Spain international’s future is uncertain due to Barcelona’s financial situation, with a new contract at Camp Nou unable to be registered.
As a result, Gavi remains a youth player at the club and will be able to leave at the end of the season if the situation cannot be resolved, reportedly alerting a number of clubs in Europe.
Chelsea and Bayern Munich have both been attributed with an interest in signing the teenager, with the former reportedly prepared to make him one of the Premier League’s best-paid players.
However, Xavi still believes his future is in Catalonia and questioned why he would want to leave.
“I don’t think Gavi would be happy at another club, he has everything here,” he told a pre-match press conference.
“He’s 18-years-old, he’s a key player in our team. For me, he is a footballer who is outstanding.
“I don’t know what he is going to decide but, for me, his future is here at the club.”
